Expert insights

Photometry is a cost-efficient technique that can be used to analyze beer and brewing products either during production or the quality control process. The combination of photometric detection and ready-to-use analytical test kits can be an easy and reliable alternative to the complex and time-consuming testing procedures most labs often habitually follow.

Monitoring a range of parameters such as bitterness, sulfite content, and spoilage contaminants throughout the beer making process ensures that you can produce safe, delicious, and high-quality beer.

This free webinar, titled Chemical and Microbiological Monitoring for Breweries, will consist of two parts:

Part I: Light but full-bodied beer analysis: Sulfur dioxide analysis in beer made easy using spectroscopy - Dr. Fabian Zieschang
Part II: Microbial spoilage detection in beer: Workflow optimization for beer membrane filtration - Samuel Santiago

Webinar Learning objectives:

  • Learn how to monitor sulfur dioxide in beer

  • Compare photometric analysis, using test kits, with common methods

  • Learn how to easily use analytical test kits & photometers

  • Perform membrane filtration in microbial analysis and use more viable options

  • Streamline your workflow

  • Gain knowledge on how to reduce false negative/positive results

All webinar participants can download a certificate of attendance, with a learning outcomes summary document for continuing education purposes.

Attend the live webinar on Friday, November 2, at:

  • 16:00 GMT

  • 17:00 CET

  • 12:00 EDT

  • 09:00 PDT

UV-Visible SpectroscopyUltraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometers are used to measure the interaction of UV and visible light with a sample, including transmission, reflectance & absorbance. The two major instrument classes are single-beam or double-beam spectrophotometers. More specialized equipment includes colorimeters, spectroradiometers and refractometers. Portable and microvolume spectrophotometers are also available. For the modular spectroscopy lab, explore a range of light sources for combination with a spectrograph/spectrometer and optics. Find the best UV-Vis spectroscopy products in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Food and Beverage ProcessingFood and Beverage Processing involves the preparation of food products for further analysis. Typical instrumentation includes blanchers, color sorters, cookers, grinders, and refrigeration. These are used to replicate the processes commonly used in the commercial preparation of food and beverages.MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.
